I bet the vineyard owners are going to love them in time...
Unlikely they'd do much. Lots of other crops they'd prefer, especially with better line of sight for evasive maneuvers.

I'm thrilled they're here in either case, just wondering.

Just out of curiosity, are they native here? In other words is this a reintroduction to a place they were extirpated or just a successful transplant?
That

They might love those grapes and ruin some vineyards.....

So this would be a prime opportunity for wdfw to put out one permit. There are probably enough now to sustain one buck being killed. AND ALL funds that come from the application are earmarked to go to importing more in AND nothing else. Partner with other groups to pool funds - both tribal and private t bring in as many as possible from different areas to have a good gene pool. Do that for 10 years and we would have a stable and huntable population. There is so much good habitat here for them that they would do well and offer another hunting opportunity. I think a ton of people would apply just knowing what the funds are going for. I know i would.
